[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Thanks for your benchmark results. Unfortunately the results on kernel 3 are lower :( But this could have many reasons.

The guy in this video said the benchmarks are more cpu releated than gpu related. Maybe cpu can be or must be tweaked somehow on kernel3. And I told you earlier that some pure graphic benchmarks like nenamark got higher scores on the new kernel.

Another aspect is that the leaked htc kernel has surely still some debug flags set. I'd expect a better performance with the final version (this is also a hint for all the people that complained so much in the virtuous thread about the "lags and bad performance")

Since there are still a lot of errors under the hood I wouldn't give too much about this benchmark. Let's try to fix all errors first. Also I'd like to know if you guys that submitted the results were overclocked and what governors you used?

In the meantime I make a new build with a POSSIBLE sweep2wake fix included. Can someone who experienced touchscreen freezes very often PM me so I could provide a test version? Or did anyone find a way to reproduce that freeze 100%?

Call hangup causes around 6+ times out of 10 freezes...especially after a fresh install...is an excellent use case :)
[HTC Desire S] Mr. Death:
I suppose it's mistake and this version is WITHOUT sweep2wake kernel. Isn't it?
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
kinda funny... actually pcrepair just provided the bootimg without sweep2wake requested by blindndumb... that line below is just his signature :) I was also a bit onfused about that ;)

---------- Post added at 03:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:25 PM ----------

feature build updated:

this is still kernel 2!

I included a POSSIBLE sweep2wake fix. Everybody who experienced touchscreen freezes with sweep2wake after call hangups please try if the issue is still reproducable and report back.

Sorry no non-sweep2wake version this time since it's mainly a sweep2wake fix

cm fixes and updates

AOKP toggles still included :D

I've just tested the GPS signal with navigon select outside! After 20 seconds it found the satellites and then i had an excellent signal. But i've only tested it for about 5 minutes!

Occurs the problem after a while or directly if you start the navigation app?
[HTC Desire S] chrisi100:
we won't have a stable 3.x kernel till HTC releases the source and that's in 2 month the soonest, if they release the FOTA at the end of june officially.

so I really don't know why the devs aren't releasing a rom with the binary kernel3 as it is.

back in the days we tested ics roms with pointer mode ;-) and I don't think it's worse than that.
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
try kernel v3 (named as F1) yourself... as the cm9 with kernel v2 is called alpha I dont know how we should call cm9+kernel v3 - highly experimental?! :) I used F1 with icecoldsandwich v8 = I couln't pick a phone :) do you?
[HTC Desire S] chrisi100:
I don't care how you want to call it :p, but according to post 3 everything I need is working and you can't be serious comparing this with just pasting the F1 kernel with a "sense" ramdisk in a aokp rom without doing anything further :)
[HTC Desire S] docertabum:
ok, so for you the answer is obvious... it's ready when it's ready, Mr. Sense Ramdisk :P
[HTC Desire S] pcrepair:
Isn't that the answer for all rom's? The devs do this in there spare time so we should all be thankful they do what they do. We could all be locked down still at the hands of HTC and the sense UI.

[HTC Desire S] Nexx:
Hello everyone =)

Well, I wanted talk about things I've been recently considering. First though, I want to say thanks to nk111 for maintaining things the past little while. Good job mate, I do appreciate it.

As you know, we have a binary 3.0 kernel. I've received many questions as to why we don't just use it, so here is why. Back when I first started work on CM7, we tried using the binary sense kernel before Cayniarb worked tirelessly on helping with an AOSP one. Whilst a sense kernel will boot an AOSP ROM, many things are broken and almost impossible to fix. Here's a short run-down on what's broken using the leaked 3.0 kernel in CM9:

WiFi mostly locks up the phone on boot if left activated before reboot

Bluetooth doesn't work at all

Tethering is broken

The USB subsystem frequently goes into a permanent loop, requiring a reboot

Shutting the screen off kills ADB and MTP conectivity

Camera's aren't working

PMEM is enabled in the config but doesn't work

That's just what we discovered so far.

On the kernel porting side, the news isn't any better. I said right from the start that I might not be able to manage the port, and whilst I have had limited success getting the device to boot, even more is broken compared to the binary kernel because large chunks of the source code have to be rewritten. Currently the phone boots with limited USB functionality but no screen, touch-screen or buttons are functional, nor is the sound and there's a huge number of other errors.

Work on the 3.0 kernel has killed any other progress by me in our ROM for the past 2 months so I've made a decision. I've decided to wait for HTC to release the official 3.0 source for our device and divert my full attention back to CM9.

I fully appreciate that this is not the news many of you wish to hear but it's for the best. Using the binary 3.0 kernel in CM9 will break more than it fixes, and the chance of being able to get a fully working from-source 3.0 kernel before HTC releases theirs, is unlikely at best.

We've already seen one RUU leak for the Desire S and I believe we'll see more in the near future. Once the first OTA official goes out, I'll be doing my best to get HTC to push out the source, and I'll get KanocX on the case too =)

Finally, I want to thank each and every one of you for the support you've given. Hopefully the 3.0 source will be out before we know it and we'll all have a fully working CM9 build.

I'll be back on Monday to push out an updated build.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Hey Nexx thanks for all the efforts during these 2 months!

You definitely have made the right choice now but I bet you have learned a lot while trying to make this kernel. The HTC source is near and there is no point to keep investing time which can be spared on other projects!

Thanks again and big respect
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
One really weird issue with binary kernel 3 is that "stuck on boot anim screen when wifi was left on before reboot" nexx mentioned above. As I mentioned earlier the work around for this issue is really to sweep over the soft keys again and again. Then the boot completes... I mean wtf?

Beside that I'm looking forward to have nexx back on duty. In reality he wasn't really away though. Nexx is the person who always tries his best to answer your questions. Without his help I would not have built a single rom. Thank you mate!

---------- Post added at 11:11 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 AM ----------

Dammit! Since I seem to be the only one who doesn't get that bug I got some quastions...

How did you end the call before that freeze occured? Did the other party hang up or did you? And did you hold the device near to the ear e.g. was the screen off? How long was the duration of that call? How long is you screen timeout in the settings/display?
[HTC Desire S] BillGoss:
You aren't the only one. I have absolutely no problems with s2w. I've been using it since you first released it.

Back to CM7 cos overheating.......

Today after 20 min of GPS Navigation i take the phone in my hand and feel it becomes crazy hot.....I'm sure the temperature was over 65-70°, so i turn off my device cos i get scare.:(

I don't know the reason may be somebody face this problem already.

GPS, DATA and BT was switched on.
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Interesting. I also had the feeling the phone heated up too much while on GPS.... did you have the phone connected to a car dock or charger? I know there were changes to charging mode stuff lately. Maybe they broke something...

[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Just had a "freeze" myself. I then found out in DDMS that the touchscreen is not really crashed. I still see the touch events in logcat. Instead I see a lot of out of memory errors from the graphic drivers... Something to investigate further...
[HTC Desire S] kirri_le:
I'm still using nosweep version of the 2nd of June and it works fine. Sometimes I have hangs while using the default browser (2 times full-frize, even soft keys didn't respond). Other is ok.

Also I have a one question about the default keyboard. Is it possible to enable sweep-the-space feature to change the input language?
[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Funny. Yesterday i started to work on the keyboard because I wanted the shift key to work like this:

No shift - tap - shift - tap - caps lock - tap - no shift

I personally like that a lot more than double tap or long press for caps lock. If this is something that anyone else wants let me know.

I'd also really really like to have cursor keys, alt, ctrl and tap supported. I know I can use hackers keyboard with 5 row layout but I don't like to switch keyboards so often. I need ideas for that. The special keys like ctrl and alt could be integrated in other keys "more keys" pop up like the numbers. But the cursor keys should stay visible while used... I already thought about making the whole keyboard slide able so we could integrate those keys just on the right side like a number block. Or support gestures?

I'll see if the swipe space to switch language part is doable...
[HTC Desire S] kirri_le:
Thanks a lot :) Am I right, that now I can change the language only with long tapping the space, and then choose another one?

Intresting idea about sliding the whole keyboard for any events. I know that SmartKeyboard allows it, maybe it'll be heplful. Nevertheless the default one is the most comfortable for me.
[HTC Desire S] lhn1989:
I like it too!
[HTC Desire S] Zokormazo:
I think that it's easier to reproduce the freeze bug with overlock, just coming back from deep sleep. Just have one freeze and it was with morning alarm to wake up. Quite annoying not being able to stop de alarm cause the touchpad is freezed :D

I haven't had any freeze with calls this time, but honestly I haven't use the phone too much last days, just some templerun and few calls (two-three per day)

Yesterday I suffered gfx corruption navigatin on temple-run menus, it may be related. I tried to find a way to reproduce it with no success, I haven't had more gfx corruption :S

[HTC Desire S] PlayGhost2:
im not using this rom yet, but im following the thread.

from every roms that i used on my used desire s, all the lock screen freezes were cause by only 1 thing... minimum cpu freq too low. i recomend a minimum cpu freq of 614MHZ.

right now im using latest coredroid rom with kernel Lord Clockan v1.3 b1 and smartass2 governor with a minimum cpu freq of 460MHZ stable. lower than this my phone will freeze every time. i used to use kernel Endymion v2.0 with savagenzen governor and the below 614MHZ it would freeze.

I had min freq 245mhz. There, in cm9, isnt that problem

You don't need to pull battery, just push power+vol up+vol down for few seconds to reboot. If it's completely frozen, you can wait ten minutes to automatic reboot.

new week new build:

this is still kernel 2!

This build (incl kernel) is completely built with the linaro toolchain! Other optimizations from linaro are also included. See here for some details about that. Please don't expect wonders because not everything what they used for the demonstration has been merged in yet!

Lots of fixes and changes from cm (for instance some mms fixes, lock screen weather...)

customizable lockscreen background

AOKP toggles still included :D

sweep2wake still included

don't care about the 'unofficial' in the filename. The naming schema has been changed (again). From now my builds will be labeled 'EXPERIMENTAL'.

Even though he tried very hard nexx won't be able to provide a build today. He backported newer touchscreen drivers into our kernel to get rid of the 'legacy mode' for the touchscreen we are using right now. This needs some more modifications and TESTING. But expect a new build from nexx soon.

Generally we decided that nexx will provide the strict 'CM code only' builds while I will continue to push out experimental stuff to you so you'll always have a choice about what you want to flash...

[HTC Desire S] nk111:
Well. From what I understand that changes how the code gets compiled for our plattform. Linaro has made optimizations to that process so that the output should be more efficient and in some cases faster then before. Maybe you will 'feel' a difference in the UI maybe you won't. As I said: not all patches have been merged yet. However... they claim to speed up android noticeable by "by up to 100 percent over stock". As always I wouldn't give a lot on such numbers but they show the potential. Let's see where this leads to.

I had the same issue when I tried CM9 (first build by nk111 with AOKP Toggles). Trebuchet was laggy, so was the Notification panel drag down animation. I suppose it has something to do with the leaked radio.
